Special to the Globe
NEW ROCKFORD, Dak., Nov. o0.-The
unexpected advent Of party of Mime
sofa and Dakota railway official and
their announcement that they intend to
constitute New Rockford the first divi-
sion headquarters of their line west of
Fargo, has called suddenly to view a
young town of permanent establishment
and rich promise at the head waters of
the James river in Dakota, at the cross
ing of the jamestown Dc Northern road.
In the booming times of 1882 a syndicate
of owners, among whom were the James
River National bank and WV. Dudley,
of Jamestown; eX-COngressman Dun
nell, of Minnesota, and the Northern
Pacific Railway company filed plat of
New Rockford, advertised it a few
weeks, appointed local agent, and left
the municipal infant to hustle for itself.
In 1885 northern Foster county had so
far progressed as to vote the county
capital away from Darlington and to
New Rockford, but with attendant cir
cumStanceS which initiated Sanguinary
antagoniSms of a personal and legal
nature between the two sections. Seri-
Gus results were happily averted by an
appeal to that panacea for the cure of
cOunty-Seat wounds as well as the in
Strument of their infliction-the terrific
rial legiSlature-and Eddy county was
created, with New Rockford the capital.
UnasSisted by any agency except its
natural resources of fertility and situa-
ton, Eddy county steadily progressed,
and New Rockford advanced with it.
